I had the chance to go to Johnston's twice during a recent visit to Monticello, and the food was incredible! I almost have to recommend going on a Friday, as that is seafood day and the fried gulf shrimp I had were great, and a really big portion! I say almost because the brisket I had the next day was absolutely as good, and the ribs were wonderful, both complimenting the house-made barbecue sauces really well. They had lots of side options, and while mac and cheese is a sure winner every time, don't sleep on the baked beans! They're slow-simmered with pulled pork and they just melt. Make sure to ask if they have any desserts from Lil Fig Cafe on offer! I had the cheesecake and it was INCREDIBLE. Fluffy, but rich and tender, and needed no fancy toppings to make it absolutely delicious!
I will be back for sure next time I swing through town!
